Scientific paper

It is suggested that the matter emitting the shifted lines in SS433 is accelerated to its terminal velocity by radiation pressure due to photon absorption below the Lyman edge by L-alpha transitions. A mechanism that may explain the confinement of the region from which moving features are emitted to very narrow conical sections is also considered. Possible effects of a magnetic field on the observed line positions are examined, and it is concluded that a static dipolar atmosphere is the source of the unshifted emission lines.
